Bug? PC Windows 10 Update B4A IDE Editor Problems/Issues

Hello,

I did a fresh install of Windows 10 (final release version) on my Brand New Surface Pro 3 on July 30th. I also put the latest version of B4A on the device.

I have noticed that the B4A code window (IDE) is much harder to resize and move around by grabbing the title bar than any other window (i.e., file explorer, etc.). Also, resizing the same B4A window causes a strange "jitter" effect. Has anyone else experienced this? I also tried putting on a NEW Surface 3 (not pro version), and I got the exact same results.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Thanks for the response Erel.

I tried changing the theme, but it doesn't make much difference.
It seems like when resizing the IDE window, the screen write is much slower than with other windows. I this this is what causes the jitter/flicker. This is strange, because it doesn't do that with any other window (non-B4A).

Everything else works great. This isn't a major problem, just a little weird.

I had posted a similar issue here (and also earlier):
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/ide-display-problem.57688/
I am using a dual monitor set-up.

In my simple mind it appears to me that with the original installation (no IDE theme chosen) the IDE window is immersed into the background without a boundary. Moving/resizing looks behaves like moving an object through a honey-like medium. After applying a theme, the IDE gets a boundary and looks like a "normal" window on top of the screen background and it is updated immediately. I don't know if this picture makes sense. Anyway, it looks like something that might be worth to be fixed (partially?) by associating a theme to the IDE during installation.
